1. The Catholic Church established the Inquisition in the 16th century to root out heresy and punish those who strayed from the teachings of the Church. The Inquisition used torture, imprisonment, and execution to intimidate and suppress Protestant beliefs and practices.
2. The Council of Trent, held between 1545 and 1563, was a key response by the Catholic Church to the Protestant Reformation. The council addressed many doctrinal and organizational issues, reaffirming traditional Catholic teachings and practices while condemning Protestant beliefs as heretical. The decisions made at the Council of Trent helped solidify Catholic doctrine and served as a means to counter the growing influence of Protestantism.
